On Tuesday, December 1, the pigs
raided and ransacked the Progressive
Bookstore, Guerilla, and a Rising Up
Angry co-op. It was no coincident
that these 3 groups of people were
varnped on by the pigs. They used the
excuse that they were looking for
"typewriters, notepaper, scraps of
cloth and incendiary devices", because of the firebombings of the U.S.
Consulate on Saturday morning. De
spite the War Measures Act, all these
groups had been active around whats
been happening in Quebec. The Internationalists, in their newspaper, had

At the Progressive Bookstore the
pigs tore apart the office. They

women (one of whom was 8-1/2 months
pregnant) and one man. Before leaving the bookstore, they stuffed a rag
